However, they now appear to have a better shot ongoal as they (hopefully?) join the ranks of those with a broader datacenter narrative, and Hence, while we expect to hear about all their diversification initiatives it will be thedatacenter story that likely will carry (or drop) the day (with questions on timeframe, size,and share across CPU, accelerator/rack, and ASIC all top of mind), and we would hope fora 5-year outlook (giving investors more room to dream) as preferred to a three year (i.e.hoping for 2031 vs 2029). We would also anticipate updates on other parts of the businessthough including auto pipeline and outlook, PCs (maybe worse?) and VR (maybe better?), and Our note today provides 10 questions that we will be listening for at the event. We rateQualcomm Market-Perform with a $140 target price. Investment ImplicationsQCOM (MP, $140): Memory headwinds appear likely to pressure smartphone builds and numbers appear high; we shall see if datacenter dream is enough to attract buyers.

To assist investors we provide 10 questionsfor the meeting. Will management provide an update on targets set out at the last investor day in November 2024 and if so how mightthey look like? How will they account for Datacenter?At its last investor day, Qualcomm held its FY26 and FY31 Autotargets unchanged (>$4B and >$9B, respectively) and provided an interim FY29 target of ~$8B (vs ~$4.0B in FY25). For IoT,QCOM targeted revenue to grow from $5.4B in FY24 ($6.6B in FY25) to $14B in FY29. Within IoT, Management expected$4B for PCs, >$2B in XR, $4B in Industrial and $8B in Other (networking, tablets, headphones and smartwatches) in FY29,respectively. We wonder if management will provide new targets for the above segments besides the Datacenter opportunity How large is the Data Center opportunity in terms of the TAM, revenue, and timeframe, and how does Qualcommsegment the Datacenter market? Which segment are they targeting, and what is their right to win given Qualcomm isa late comer and the market is becoming crowded?Since Qualcomm’s last earnings at the end of April when the companyannounced a custom silicon engagement with a leading hyperscaler, the stock went on a tear and is up ~43% since earningsin April. At Bernstein's SDC conference in May the company further disclosed that they expect the Datacenter opportunity tobe in the “multiple billion dollar” range in FY27. We hope to learn more about the product set (ASICs, accelerator racks, CPUs How does Qualcomm view the evolution of the handset market both in the short term (impact of memory-drivenheadwinds) and over the longer-term? How does it see agentic AI, and an evolving customer-mix (Apple, Samsung)impact the business?Despite the excitement about the Datacenter business, handsets are still the primary revenue stream forQualcomm (both chips and licensing) for now, and as such we wonder if the company will provide an update on how the see thedemand picture evolving in the short-term, following comments that they see the handset market bottoming in the Septemberquarter (which we believe brings some risk given current memory dynamics). Then there is Apple meaningfully rolling off starting What is the company's outlook in its lice
